Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A lahar is a type of mudflow or debris flow composed of a slurry of pyroclastic material, rocky debris, and water. The material flows down from a volcano, typically along a river valley. Lahars are caused by the rapid melting of snow and ice atop a volcano during an eruption, mixing with the volcanic ash and debris.
